Maccreate reader Alexander Kohler made a comparative list of which cameras Adobe and Apple support with raw conversion. He’s made it available for download. My conclusion: 1: Look at these lists before buying a camera. 2: Both companies love Nikon! 3: What the heck is a Canon 20Da? 4: There isn’t one camera on either companies not-supported list I would ... read more
